PET PORTRAIT BOOKINGS PAYMENT

$100.00 deposit is required to book your spot on my waitlist. I will email you a sketch and background options of your portrait for you to approve. Once I have received approval, the final balance will be due. The portrait will be shipped once shipping balance is paid and final payment is cleared.

 

Payment can be made via Card or Paypal. US orders can also be paid by check, bank transfer or Venmo. 

 

7-DAY MONEY BACK GUARANTEE

I provide a 7-day money back guarantee for pet portrait bookings, from the date you pay your $100.00 deposit. During this 7-day cooling off period, you may request to cancel your booking, and receive a full refund.

 

REFUNDS

If you wish to cancel your pet portrait booking after the 7-day cooling off period, you will forfeit the deposit you have paid in full.

 

DEPOSIT AND APPROVAL PAYMENT

Once you have paid your $100.00 deposit to secure a slot in my schedule, you will need to provide me with photos of your pet, and approve the sketch and background color. If a decision has not been agreed on and you have not paid the remainder of your portrait within a 14 days of the time I provide the sketch and background options, then your booking will be put to the back of my waiting list which may be several months long. If more than 12 months pass between the date of your deposit payment, and your approval of the sketch and back ground, then the final cost of your portrait will be subject to my current price list at that time. This may mean that the final cost of your portrait is more than when you originally placed your booking.

 

TIMEFRAME

When you book your pet portrait with me, I will advise you of an estimated date of completion. If due to any unforeseen

circumstances (for example injury or illness) I am unable to meet these timescales, then I can offer you a full refund. I will always keep in close contact with you throughout the creation process of your portrait so that you are kept up to date.

 

CHANGES TO A FINAL DRAWING

Once your portrait is complete, you will receive an email with a good quality watermarked photograph of your artwork for your approval. If there are any minor tweaks you wish to make, this is the time to request them. These will be done at no extra cost.

If you wish to make changes that are significantly different from the original order, then this may incur an extra cost. Please be aware that due to the nature of pastels, it’s not always possible to make major changes to a portrait once completed. Once you have approved your portrait, no further amendments will be made.

 

DELIVERY

Your portrait will arrive flat packed, unmounted and unframed. It will be securely packaged to ensure its safety in transit. You will be emailed a tracking link for you to check the progress of your delivery. Delivery times in the US range from 2-4 business days. Delivery times outside the US vary according to where you are located. Your portrait will be packaged to a very high standard to ensure its safety in transit. If in the unlikely event it arrives to you damaged, please photograph both the packaging and the damage to the portrait, and email me immediately. You will need to return the damaged artwork to me in its original packaging. I will cover the costs of the return. If the damage to your portrait can be rectified, then I will do this and return your portrait back to you at no extra cost. If the portrait is damaged beyond repair, then I will draw you a replacement portrait at no extra cost. There may be a wait for the replacement portrait, depending on my waiting list at that time.

 

COLLECTION OF PORTRAIT

You are welcome to collect your portrait in person. Collection is by prior arrangement only. Please contact me before hand to arrange a date and time.

 

MOUNTING

If you have chosen to have your portrait mounted through me you are accepting the style that I make for your portrait. Any changes you wish to make after receiving your mounted portrait will be subject to any costs charged by other the framers. Full payment for your portrait including the mounting costs must be made before your portrait is mounted.
